'Fox and Friends' Host Pushes Back on Trump After He Repeats Conspiracy Theory That Ukraine Has DNC Server

'Fox and Friends' Host Pushes Back on Trump After He Repeats Conspiracy Theory That Ukraine Has DNC Server
Fox News

He's lost it.

Diplomat and Ukraine expert Dr. Fiona Hill testified before the House Intelligence Committee overseeing the impeachment inquiry on Thursday, notably criticizing Republican lawmakers for pushing the conspiracy theory that it was Ukraine that hacked our election in 2016 and framed Russia for it.

Only one day later, President Donald Trump called in to Fox and Friends, repeating the same fictional narrative that Dr. Hill warned against.


Watch below.

Trump claimed that the Democratic National Committee—whose emails were hacked by Russia during the 2016—refused to give over their corrupted server to the FBI, instead giving it to a company called Crowdstrike, owned by a wealthy Ukrainian.

This is utterly false. There is no missing server, Crowdstrike has no immediate ties to Ukraine, and all evidence on the corrupted servers was given to the FBI.

Nevertheless, Trump spread the conspiracy theory on Fox & Friends just like he did on his infamous July 25 call with President Zelensky.

But host Steve Doocy seemed skeptical:

"Are you sure they did that? Are you sure they gave it to Ukraine?"

The other hosts, Brian Kilmeade and Ainsley Earnhardt, seemed doubtful as well.

Still, Trump responded to Doocy's question with, "Well that's what the word is."

That is absolutely not what the word is, and people weren't afraid to tell him as much.

People had suspicions as to why Trump keeps obsessively peddling the debunked fever dream, and they all have to do with Russia.

When even the Fox and Friends hosts seem skeptical, you know the President is dead wrong.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
